Adrien Grand commented on LUCENE-5352:
--------------------------------------

I ran tests as well and got similar results.

It may be possible to optimize this reader (maybe reversing the bytes in the 
call to readLong takes substantial time on little-endian computers (just 
guessing)?) but taking a step back, I'm wondering that maybe this aligned 
format should be deprecated. As [~toke] noted last year, the in-memory impl is 
not faster than Packed64 on all CPUs, so if the speed-up is not clear for 
disk-based structures either, I think we should just deprecate it?

> from some simple testing, DirectPacked64SingleBlockReader seems slower than 
> DirectPackedReader (at least in a few cases i tested, more testing needed, 
> but look at the code).
> this is unintuitive, because by passing e.g. FASTER you are making it slower.
